Summary

Located in the small town of Lodge Grass, Montana, Lodge Grass High School serves 174 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Lodge Grass High School District, which is ranked 374 out of 387 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, Lodge Grass High School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Montana high schools based on academic performance. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 5.56% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 54.99%. The school's mathematics proficiency rates have been 0% for the past several years, compared to the state average of around 35-37%. Additionally, 100% of the school's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population.

While the school's spending per student is higher than the state average, this increased funding does not seem to translate into improved academic outcomes. The persistent low performance over the past decade suggests that there may be underlying factors, such as teacher quality, curriculum, or broader community-level issues, that need to be addressed. The relatively low student-teacher ratio could be a potential strength, but the lack of improvement in academic performance indicates that other systemic issues may need to be tackled to support student learning and achievement at Lodge Grass High School.
